Pharaoh, Pharaoh
Music by Richard Berry, lyrics unknown. Additional lyrics by Mah Tovu (Brodsky/Chasen/Zweiback).
CHORUS: Pharaoh, Pharaoh, whoa baby, let my people go! (2x)
A burnin' bush told me just the other day
That I should go to Egypt and say,
"It's time to let my people be free -
Listen to God if you won't listen to me!"

CHORUS
Well me and and my people goin' to the Red Sea,
With Pharaoh's best army comin' after me.
I took my staff, stuck it in the stand,
And all of God's people walked on dry land.
Singin...

CHORUS
Now Pharaoh's army was a-comin' too,
So whattaya think that God did do?
Had me take my staff and clear my throat,
And all of Pharaoh's army did the dead man's float.

CHORUS
Well that's the story of the stubborn goat.
Pharaoh should've know that chariots don't float.
The lesson is simple, it's easy to find,
When God says, "GO!" you had better mind!

الغاء الجاذبية عند بناء الاهرامات

النظريات السابقة والآراء المختلفة عن أسلوب بناء الأ هرامات بـعـد أيـام قـليلة فـقـط مـن إرسـالي رسـالـة لجـريـدة الأهـرام أعلنها فيها اكتشافي للسر الهندسي الحقيقي لبناء الهـرم الأكبـر .. وطلبي مساعدة مؤسسة الأهرام لإعـلان هذا الاكتشاف البالغ الأهمية للعـالم كلـه .. وفي صباح يوم  السبت  18  يوليو  1998 م  .. إذ بي أفاجأ بحملة صحفية قادتها مؤسسة الأهرام للتغطية على كشفي الهام لأسباب لا يعلمها إلا اللـه .. وبدأت الحملة بنشـر الخبر التالي في  الصفحة الاولى  من جريدة الاهرام .. يقول الخبر بالحرف الواحد : ( الفراعنة ألغوا الجاذبية عند رفع أحجار الأهرامات ) ( أكد فريق من علماء هندسة العمارة وعلم المصريات أن الفراعنة تمكنوا من إلغاء الجاذبية الأرضية عند رفع الأحجار التي استخدمت في بناء الأهرامات وتحريكها لمسافات طويلة وذلك عن طريق توجيه ذبذبات صوتية خاصة وشحنات كهروستاتيكية لتسهيل عملية رفعها . صورة المقـال وصرح الدكتور أستاذ هندسة العمارة بالجامعة وخبير علم المصريات للمحرر العلمي بأن هذا التفسير لطريقة بناء الاهرامات جاء من خلال برديتين .. ...
